Dealing with the Ottoman conquest of Egypt, this text considers its effect on Egypt's political, religious and social institutions, their transition from the Mamluk to the Ottoman regime and further development up to the 17th century. The first part of the volume discusses the relationship between the Ottoman ruling establishment, the local religious groups and the military aristocracy. Waqf documents are a major source for this study. The second part analyzes and compares the endowments of the Ottoman governers and those of the military aristocracy and their respective impact on the urban development and architecture of Cairo in this period. The architecture is documented with photographs and figures. By integrating architecture and urbanism in the historical analysis of the period under study, this book should be useful for historians and art historians of Egypt.
